    That's not bad. I think I would have preferred it if the colours were reversed though. Mainly black with a few bits of fluorescent yellow/green spread about.

    Nearly everything that site calls seems to turn out to be the official tops so we might be stuck with this monstrosity.

    All that said this one is just a drawing as opposed to an actual shirt so there is still hope this could be just someone's imagination.

    Was it Meat Loaf who sang "2 out of 3 ain't bad" that just about sums up the 3 new shirt for next season.

    I'm praying the green with white pinstripe one is legit, absolute stunner

    Quality of the stitching on the long sleeve top is rotten, you can almost pull it apart. Poor.

    Always found the quality of the nike tops really good, quite a few folk saying the NB ones are poor now.

    The Nike ones weren't anything special but they lasted a year or two, no bother.

    I have the 125th anniversary one. Still in great condition. Never wore it that often right enough.

    I've got our last Nike one and the New Balance one both long sleeve'd, the difference in finish of the stitching is crazy.

    There's a considerable gap on the stitching when you slightly pull on the sleeve of the New Balance one, just isn't finished as well as the Nike one at all.

    Seem much cheaper made.

    That bumblee top looks like a training top though the things on the front of the sleeves gives it away.

    It fits!!!!

    :party::party048::36::hi5:

    Sort of........

    Thought I'd get a free shirt as well, as I had to give my size at the checkout for that. :39:

    How's the printing (sponsor/back print) holding up for others?

    Got the new home strip yesterday. It fits fine so I'm guessing the people who have had problems with the sizing have just been unlucky. It doesn't have elasticated sleeves on it which is a bit of a bummer(I hate loose sleeves hanging over your hands) but other than that it's a nice top.

    Hearing all these horror stories made me fear for the worst. Of course you can still see my beer belly, but it's no worse than my XL Nike or even Umbro Celtic tops.

    I've a goalie jersey from 2008 that's still holding strong, the stitching in the wrist has come loose but I think thats just because it's long sleeve and I stretch that bit over my hands.
